This document provides an overview of a web accessibility workshop session on accessible web design. The session included the following topics:
1. An introduction to the workshop and course evaluation criteria.
2. An empathy exercise where participants attempted to use the web with limited abilities to understand accessibility challenges.
3. A discussion of frameworks for accessible web design, including principles such as clear purpose, solid structure, and easy interaction.
The workshop covered important concepts for accessible design such as considering all users, including those with disabilities, building sites using standards like WCAG 2.0, and designing for ease of use, navigation, and understanding across different abilities. The goal was to prepare participants for testing and meeting web accessibility
Toolkit for the Digital Accessibility Space3Play Media

A Web for Everyone: Accessibility as a design challengeWhitney Quesenbery
Let's get past the idea that checklists and compliance all there is to accessibility. Designing for accessibility is a user experience design problem, starting with understanding how people with disabilities use your products. If we aim to design for all senses we can focus on easy interaction, helpful wayfinding, clean presentation, plain language and media instead of "rules." Doing so, we can create a web for everyone and a delightful user experience where accessibility and usability work together.

Web Accessibility in its simplest definition is all about making sure websites work for the widest possible audience. This seminar would involve a quick introduction to Web Accessibility, Web Accessibility Issues, Guidelines etc.
Practical tools for Web Accessibility testingToufic Sbeiti
There is no single tool that does a full accessibility assessment of a web page. Developers use a variety of tools to help them evaluate websites. This is a practical talk with lots of demos. I will share my favorites, free and easy to use, tools to measure the level of accessibility of web page.
With increased complaints and legal action for organisations of inaccessible websites (Coles, Peapod) and apps (Westpac), now is the time for all web and app Project Managers, Developers, UX/Designers, Content Producers, Business Analysts and Testers to be ‘baking in’ accessibility into processes and work practices.
This presentation will show that accessibility is everyone’s responsibility and it is not difficult to get started or find resources that will help you and your team produce a website, app or digital presence that works for everyone!
This presentation will help you understand:
- The legal requirements behind Web Accessibility
- How do people with disabilities use the web and what assistive technologies they use
- How good usability makes up for better accessibility and improves site’ SEO
- Financial benefits of having an accessible website

We all get the WHO or we wouldn’t be here, same with the WHY. This presentation looks at WHAT, WHERE and HOW.
Accessibility is often a lot closer than you realise. Organisations rely on and invest heavily in technology, one of the options being considered in the mix may open up a whole new pool of resourcing options.
This presentation explores how an organisation can quickly and easily include accessibility in their organisational planning. Government departments started with accessible websites, now this is flowing onto NGOs while government departments focus on the next levels of digital accessibility.
When you know the right questions to ask, it isn’t that hard and there are some quick wins organisations can and should be implementing right now. Areas covered in this presentation include:
Technology – it is probably already on the hardware you are using!
Accessible documents – what are they and how can you produce them?
Outsourcing digital – what do you put in your brief?
Websites – internet and intranet – we all know content is king – who owns accessibility
Alternative media – video, social, webinars
Organisational accessibility – it’s not a box to tick, it’s a way of doing business - how do you embed this into an organisation?
Presentation on how usability and accessibility problems are related. Including people with disabilities in usability testing can reveal deeper insights into the kinds of problems users might encounter
Accessibility In Mobile Dev LifeCycle.pptxMarkSteadman7
Mobile apps are developed and deployed at a very fast pace, so how can accessibility become a part of that? With automation, quick testing, and definition of done for accessibility we can make it apart of the dev process!
Accessibility is ease of use, being inclusive with most of the audience who are able to perform the task in a different way than normal users.

Why Solutions Fail and the Business Value of Solution ArchitectureAlan McSweeney
This is an extract from the book introduction to Solution Architecture that provides a solution architecture perspective on why solution delivery fails. It is a reasonable statement that in the minds of many people failure is synonymous with information technology projects. While this perception is an exaggeration, the outcomes of many IT solution delivery projects represent failures to at least some extent. It is also often true that solution delivery failure is attributed to project management failure such as the quality, skill and experience of the project manager or the misapplication or lack of application of a project management methodology. However, the most effective project management will not make an undeliverable, unworkable, unusable solution deliverable, workable or usable. The solution architect should concern himself or herself with the ultimate success of the project to deliver the designed solution.
Integrated Project and Solution Delivery And Business Engagement ModelAlan McSweeney
Projects are a continuum from initial concept to planning, design, implementation and management and operation of the implemented solution (and ultimate decommissioning) and across IT and business functions.
Therefore it is important to have an integrated project delivery approach that crosses these core dimensions.
This describes an integrated approach to solution delivery encompassing Stages - project stages/timeline, Activities - IT and business functions/ roles/ activities, Gates - project review and decision gates and Artefacts - project results and deliverables. This combines project management into all other aspects and activities of project and solution delivery:
• Business
• Business Analysis
• Solution Architecture
• Implementation and Delivery
• Test and Quality
• Organisation Readiness
• Service Management
• Infrastructure
It emphasises early business engagement and solution definition and validation to detail a solution that meet a clear and articulated business need that will deliver a realisable and achievable set of business benefits. It ensures that the complexity of what has to be delivered is understood so there is a strong and solid foundation for solution implementation, delivery and management and operation.

Including Everyone: Web Accessibility 101Helena Zubkow
Shouldn’t the web be awesome for everyone? That's not always the case, but it could be.
Designed for developers, project managers, and directors alike, the goal of this session is to introduce everyone to the wonderful world of web accessibility. We'll cover the basic standards and regional expectations for accessibility, as well as the principles and concepts that make up the accessibility field. This session will touch on Section 508, WCAG 2.0 standards, and the financial viability of a web accessibility initiative in an industry where time is money.
This session is proposed as a conceptual prelude to our more developer-oriented accessibility session that is taking place at the Higher Ed Summit. Based on my experience as a web accessibility specialist from both the perspective of a project manager and a front-end developer, I'll share the knowledge I've gained with you to address the following important questions:
- What is web accessibility?
- Why does web accessibility matter to my users?
- Why does web accessibility matter for my company and clients?
- How will a web accessibility initiative affect my bottom line?
- How can I include web accessibility in my company's culture and work plans?
- What tools can I use to assess and improve accessibility in my projects?
- How can I help the web accessibility community?
Asking the Right Questions, Making the Right Decisions: Selecting Accessibl...Aisha Jackson
This PowerPoint was used in my presentation at the Teaching and Learning Technology Symposium at MSU Denver on Friday, October 22.
Although there are a plethora of web-based learning tools faculty can select from, not all of them will help students learn. There are a number of reasons for this - from the way the course was designed, to the strategies that were used to integrate the technology. This session will focus on one particular component that can impact student learning - accessibility. By the end of this session, participants will be able to: describe issues that poorly designed web-based learning tools cause when being accessed by assistive technologies, list core questions to ask vendors related to the accessibility of their tools, and make informed decisions when selecting academic technologies.

UXPA2019 Enhancing the User Experience for People with Disabilities: Top 10 ...UXPA International
An estimated 1.3 billion people globally report limitations in their daily activities due to a disability. When it comes to the physical world, businesses have made progress in accommodating customers with disabilities. But in the digital world, websites lack basic accessibility features such as text alternatives describing images, proper heading level structures so individuals who are blind and use screen readers can understand the content on a webpage, or captioning for multimedia content for individuals who are deaf or are hard of hearing – let alone assistive technology for customers who have trouble using mobile devices due to dexterity limitations that arise from a variety of conditions.
In this session, attendees will:
* Understand people with disabilities (PWDs) and how they use the web
* Learn about common barriers, issues and solutions
* Discover the different testing methodologies and their interdependencies
* Uncover ROI

Dr Scott Hollier discusses the necessity of ICT accessibility, providing an in-depth review of Media Access Australia's 'Service Providers Accessibility Guide', covering the topics of policy & legislation, web accessibility, document creation, email & social media, Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and more.
In this digital age of disruptive technologies, we have access to an exorbitant amount of information and subsequently learning opportunities. We share knowledge, create resources, give feedback and so much more. But, not everyone is able to access these learning opportunities for a number of reasons – whether it be physical, sensory, or cognitive limitations or disabilities.
We strive to help people learn and so empowering them to have access to the same learning opportunities is what making learning accessible all about.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

4. Course Evaluation Criteria
• Work in class gives 20% of final grade;
• There will be four different home works;
• Fulfillment of each gives 20% of the final
grade
5. Today Workshop
1. Target user groups – Who benefits from
accessible Web design?
2. Empathy exercise: using Web with limited
abilities
3. Framework for Accessible Web
4. WCAG 2.0 – preparing for testing
7. What does Accessibility mean?
The goal of Accessibility is that:
• Users with disabilities have access to and use of
information and data that is comparable to that of
users without disabilities
(Section 508)
• Disabled users should be able to use a system
In the usual way like other users,
Without particular difficulties,
Without help of others
8. Who is concerned? (1/3)
• People with a physical or cognitive
disability, e.g.:
Blind or visually impaired
Deaf or hard of hearing
Mobility or dexterity impaired
Reduced cognitive abilities
Most disabled people became disabled as
adults, it can happen to all of us.
9. Who is concerned? (2/3)
• Elderly people often develop disabilities, e.g.
Reduced vision, reduced hearing;
Reduced mobility or dexterity;
Reduced tactile and fine motor abilities;
Reduced short-term memory;
Dyspraxia (difficulties to plan a task);
Dyslexia;
Etc.

• This book aims to
provide the reader
with design led

11. Who is concerned? (3/3)
• It is individually very different,
which types of disability a person develops,
when it starts, and
how severe the disability becomes
• In most cases it is a combination of several
disabilities;
• The probability that a person becomes
disabled raises with age
12. Example: UK Disability Statistics
• Almost 1 in 5 people in the UK have a
disability;
• There are 5.1 million males with disabilities;
• There are 5.8 million females with disabilities;
• Only 17% of disabled people were born with
impairments. The majority of disabled people
acquire their impairments during their
working lives

15. Who else would benefit?
• People with temporary disabilities (e.g., after an
accident or stroke)
• Users in a context causing a temporary reduction of
abilities (handicapping situation), such as
Noisy environment (similar to reduced hearing)
Hands engaged in other tasks (similar to reduced mobility)
Eyes engaged in other task (similar to reduced vision)
Attention on more important task (reduced cognitive
capacity)
Limited hardware features of mobile devices, etc. (similar
to various physical handicaps)
16. Who else would benefit?
Accessible Web design => Design for All
17. Is Web accessibility relevant for
disabled? (1)
• Internet usage of disabled is higher than
average!
”The Web is not a barrier to people with
disabilities, it is the solution“ (WebAIM);
• Overall, 60% of EU citizens frequently use the
Internet; this means that more than 60% of
disabled people (>30 Mln) actually use the
Internet
18. • People who already use the Internet will continue
to use it when becoming older, as long as it is
accessible for them.
• eAccessibility is important for a large, increasing
number of people!

21. European Parliament urges stronger
public website access law
• This week (26-02-2014) European Parliament
backed a move by 593 votes to 40, with 13
abstentions, to require EU member states to
ensure all public websites are fully accessible,
not just those in 12 categories proposed by
the European Commission such as social
security benefits and enrolment in higher
education
22. Banks, Energy Providers and Public Bodies Should be
Subject to Web Accessibility Rules, Vote MEPs
• Just a third of the 761,000 public sector websites
in the EU currently conform to "international
web-accessibility standards“;
• Organisations whose websites would be subject
to the new rules would have one year from the
introduction of the new laws to ensure that new
content added to their sites complies with the
new rules. They would have three years within
which to adapt existing content and five years if
that content is "live audio“

25. The Second Task (15-20 minutes)
• Now I want you to throw away your mouse;
• Then browse the Web doing what you usually
do, and see how you get on with booking your
concert (or whatever do you do)
• Make short notes on your experience and be
ready to share it with audience

30. People First
When designing for differences, people are the
first consideration, and sites are designed with
the needs of everyone in the audience in mind
Design for ALL 30
31. Additional Data for Persona
• Ability: Information about their ability
(physical, cognitive, language) and any
assistive technology (AT) they use
• Aptitude: Their current knowledge and ability
to make inferences
• Attitude: Their motivation, emotion, risk
tolerance, and persistence
• Assistive Technology: Any technology if used
or required
Design for ALL 31
32. Emily: I want to do everything for myself

• These products are recognizable by their
straightforward effectiveness, dedication to
users’ goals, a direct path to the task at hand,
and freedom from confusing clutter or
extraneous elements

39. Clear Purpose
Thinking about accessibility from the beginning
— “Accessibility First” — is similar to the
approach of thinking “Mobile First” to ensure
that the design works as well in a screen reader
as it does on a small screen

40. Three Accessibility Strategies
1. Universal (or inclusive) design—one site;
2. Equivalent use—includes alternatives;
3. Accommodation—a separate “accessible”
version
40
Web Accessibility
Workshop
42. Solid Structure
• A solid structure depends on good coding
practice. A site coded to standards, with all
information written to be machine-readable,
supports use of the site by different browsers
or devices, including assistive technology.
42
Web Accessibility
Workshop
43. 43
• Stylesheets separate content from
presentation, using code to communicate
semantic meaning, such as content structure,
emphasis, or function, as well as visual style;
CSS
Web Accessibility
Workshop
44. Built to Standards
• Web accessibility relies on the software’s
ability to read and understand the content
and instructions contained in web pages;
• The more “meta” information you can
provide, the better the user experience will be
Design for ALL 44
45. Organize Code for Clarity and Flow
• The order of the source code makes a
difference to:
Web browsers generally
Screen readers
Search engines
• Content that appears “above the fold” in code
will be what gets read first by the software
Design for ALL 45
46. Organizing Code
• Pages are organized so that when code is read
in the order it appears in the file, it not only
makes sense, but it puts the most important
information first
46
Web Accessibility
Workshop
48. Standards for the Web
• HTML - (Hypertext Markup Language), a language for describing the
structure of a page, including semantic information, for including
interactive links and forms, and for embedding media elements
such as images and video
• CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) – a language for describing the
presentation aspects of a page, including color, type, and layout
• JavaScript - scripting language for providing interaction and dynamic
content
• WCAG 2.0 - (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) - guidelines and
techniques for making websites and web applications accessible to
people with disabilities.
• WAI-ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications Suite) – a
framework for adding attributes to web documents in order to
make actionable elements accessible to people using assistive
technology
Design for ALL 48
49. Standards for the Web (2)
• User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (UAAG) for
web browsers and media players;
• Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG)
for software that creates websites
• A new WAI project, IndieUI (Independent User
Interface), is working to create a device-
independent way to communicate user
actions, such as scrolling, to a web application
Design for ALL 49
50. People feel confident using the design because it is stable, robust,
and secure

A big hat tip to @AccessibleJoe and all the folks working on
making WordPress more accessible, and to Sylvia Eggers, author
of the accessible child theme shown here.
52. Easy Interaction (1)
Making the interaction
easy for people with
disabilities is an extension
of making interaction easy
for everyone. Interactive
elements are identified
clearly and are designed
to be easy to use
52
Web Accessibility
Workshop
53. Easy Interaction (2)
• The site supports interaction with a keyboard,
allowing assistive technology to emulate the
keyboard;
• This also requires that the keyboard tab order
make sense, matching the visual presentation
53
Web Accessibility
Workshop
54. Don’t Require Point-and-Click Interaction
• Hover: Some devices do not
support hover, such as
touchscreens— hover all you
want over a touchscreen, and
nothing is going to happen;
• Select: Using “select” to trigger
actions is problematic for
keyboard users;
• Drag and drop: This style of
interaction makes direct
manipulation of objects easy,
but typically requires a pointing
device and dexterity
54
Web Accessibility
Workshop
This feature, collecting
bookmarks for related items,
requires a mouse to drag
and drop items into the list.
A simple Add button would
make this more accessible
55. User Control
• A site with easy
interaction enables users
to control the interface,
with large enough
controls. It avoids taking
unexpected actions for
users that they can do on
their own;
• Easy interaction also
includes both preventing
and handling errors in an
accessible way

• In the physical world, we rely on maps, street signs,
and how spaces are designed to help us get around;
• With helpful wayfinding, people can navigate a site,
feature, or page following self-explanatory signposts
Helpful Wayfinding
Web Accessibility
Workshop
59. Create Consistent Cues for
Orientation and Navigation (1)
• Identify the site. (name of the site and the
organization);
• Title the page. ( Title appears in the title bar of
the browser, in a bookmarks list, in search results,
and it is the first thing announced by screen
reader software);
• Provide good headings. (describe the main topic
of the page, as well as sections of content. The
correct markup (<h1–h6>) makes it easier for
people who use assistive technology to find
them);
59
Web Accessibility
Workshop
60. Create Consistent Cues for
Orientation and Navigation (1)
• Start with an overview. (It’s common for users
to leave sites if they don’t see what they are
looking for quickly);
• Highlight the current location. (In the page
title, by highlighting the menu item for the
section, by breadcrumb navigation.
• Use multiple cues (E.g., using an icon with
color-coding and a strong text label)
60

Workshop
61. Use WAI ARIA for Navigation Roles
HTML5 elements and ARIA roles are complementary. Including both of them in
your site provides a solid code structure and good navigation around the page

64. Web Content Accessibility Guidelines
(WCAG) 2.0
• WCAG 2.0 defines how to make Web content
more accessible to people with disabilities;
• Several layers of guidance are provided
including overall principles, general guidelines,
testable success criteria and a rich collection
of sufficient techniques, advisory techniques,
and documented common failures with
examples, resource links and code
64
Web Accessibility
Workshop
65. Integrated Accessibility Guidelines
• WCAG is part of an integrated suite of accessibility
guidelines and specifications from the W3C WAI:
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) for web
content
Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG) for
authoring tools, HTML editors, content management
systems (CMS), blogs, wikis, etc.
User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (UAAG) for Web
browsers, media players, and other "user agents"
Accessible Rich Internet Applications Suite (WAI-ARIA) for
accessible rich Internet applications developed with Ajax
and such
65
Web Accessibility
Workshop
66. Principles
• At the top are four principles (POUR) that
provide the foundation for Web accessibility:
Perceivable,
Operable,
Understandable,
Robust
66
Web Accessibility
Workshop
67. Guidelines
• Guidelines are under the principles;
• The 12 guidelines provide the basic goals that
authors should work toward in order to make
content more accessible to users with
different disabilities
67
Web Accessibility
Workshop
69. Success Criteria
• For each guideline, testable success criteria
are provided to allow WCAG 2.0 to be used;
• In order to meet the needs of different groups
and different situations, three levels of
conformance are defined:
• A (lowest),
• AA, and
• AAA (highest).
69
Web Accessibility
Workshop
71. Sufficient and Advisory Techniques
• For each of the guidelines and success criteria
in the WCAG 2.0 document itself, the working
group has also documented a wide variety of
techniques;
• The techniques are informative and fall into
two categories:
Sufficient for meeting the success criteria;
Advisory for meeting the success criteria
71
Web Accessibility
Workshop
73. Two WCAG versions
• WCAG 1.0 (1999)
• WCAG 2.0 (2008)
• WCAG 2.0 builds on WCAG 1.0 and
incorporates what we've learned to make
WCAG more useful and more effective;
• Most websites that meet ("conform to")
WCAG 1.0 should not require significant
changes in order to meet WCAG 2.0
73
Web Accessibility
Workshop
74. How WCAG 2.0 Differs from WCAG 1.0
• The guidelines are organized around four basic
principles (POUR), which together constitute the basic
philosophy of the guideline;
• The guidelines themselves are under the principles;
• Finally, each guideline includes a series of success
criteria which, like the WCAG 1.0 checkpoints, define
rules for the accessibility of Web content;
• Unlike WCAG 1.0, criteria are testable. The success
criteria are assigned conformance levels (A, AA, AAA),
in a similar way as WCAG 1.0 checkpoints

significantly reduce the time and effort to
evaluate Web sites, no tool can automatically
determine the accessibility of Web sites;
• W3C does not endorse specific vendor
products;
